I’m so sick of Flood to the point I want to skin myself with a Q-tip.
It’s irritating that the infected with TP boost so far and fast you can barely hit them. Or you do manage to hit them but die in the process. Not only that, all they have to do is use their TP and they can infect you without even pressing RT.
Please 343i decrease the speed and range of the Thrusters, or remove them out of the playlist entirely.
At least give the Spartans TP, and the Flood the Hardlight shield. I personally think that would be way better.

Lol? It’s what makes flood, well flood? Give the flood hardlight shield? It’s called FLOOD and it’s purpose is fast quick paced action. Oh well, now I come to think about it, it would just turn things the other way around. The Flood all camping in one corner with hardlight shields and spartans rushing into them, trying to pick them off one at the time.
> Without TP the flood are waaayyy to easy to kill and there is no challenge.
That’s the point. Zombies are supposed to die easily and have to eventually overwhelm the humans. Flood already have shields and a huge lunge range, so it would be fair if they didn’t have the thrusters.

Imo, the only problem is that the thruster is so good in Flood that it invalidates the other two choices.
Flood should either have:
better camping spots
decrease the power of TP
give the flood sprint like in reach
Or make the shotguns overpowered if you wont do the above.
just think about it, it halo 3 campaign, flood didnt have some crazy thing like the TP they had a crazy high jump which can be replaced with extra speed not a thruster pack with that they travel at the speed of light and swords already have the lunge thing.
Also not having camping spots makes the game annoying game starts:a minute later INFECTED! like its nearly impossilbe for humans to win EVER. Reach had a balanced infection They should really have the same traits as reach infection but the zombies have the flood skin.
Get rid of Thruster Pack. The Flood having Shields is good enough. If you get rid of Thruster Pack, the Flood aren’t crazy fast and overpowered. Does this mean Reach Living Dead? Of course not! The Flood have Shields. So no pistol-sniping over and over again like in Reach.
Without Thruster Pack, the Magnum becomes more useful. Flood aren’t screwed either. Their Shields, Halo 2 Sword Lunge, and high jump height are very good for them. How do I know this? I’ve tested it. Multiple times just using Promethean Vision. When being a Flood, just keep jumping when close, then lunge and get the kill. The Humans still have a better chance than Flood with Thruster Pack. Their Magnums becomes more useful. They have more time.
TL;DR
Get rid of Thruster Pack in Flood. This makes it more fair for Humans. The Magnum becomes useful. Flood aren’t screwed because they have Shields, Halo 2 Sword Lunge, and high jump height.
I LOVE Flood. It’s better than Halo 3’s Living Dead (and Halo 3’s Living Dead was amazing!). Super happy they made Flood Combat Forms when infected in Infection a reality. I play a lot of Flood. However, I would play it so much more often if the Flood didn’t have Thruster Pack.
Does this mean I suck at Flood when being a Human? Far from it. I’ve learned how to deal with the Thruster Pack. It makes dealing with them much easier. However, at the same time, there’s a lot of stupid dying due to Thruster Pack. And I hate stupid deaths.
Sounds like someone is mad they can’t camp with the pistol and headshot everyone anymore so Flood actually takes a modicum of skill now whereas Living Dead did not. Let’s bring back Sword Base and that one ledge up top by the Red Lift tunnel so you guys feel better about Flood. ppfftt
I wouldn’t say remove the thruster but i know what you saying. The flood is supposed to win each game, but the flood is slightly, and very slightly op i think. I liked in reach how it was one shot to the head and dead. In reach i used the pistol even more than my shotgun. The pistol should be more useful, no one uses it.
My solution is a single head shot should kill them.
Also, last man standing should get a overshield like in reach.
Before flood was under powered and the Spartans had way too much advantage over them. Now its balanced. Flood gets thrusters while Spartans gets guns. It sounds fair to me.
If both sides don’t have equal opportunity to win then it is lopsided. Either remove flood shields or just remove thruster. Now that there is no "camping spots in halo 4 it is much easier to kill all the humans. Flood is trash right now. Fix it 343
